Sonic 2 - No Hit Run - Wing Fortress Zone

[@therealeggplant]

30 years later, just watching Wing Fortress Zone is still giving me anxiety

[@Darkflamewolf]

Any time I'm on the underside of the level, I get anxiety.

It tests your ability to do an incomplete jump which finishes sooner than a full one, I like it :)

Something I never understood....why does the music for this stage sound so patriotic and triumphant?

[@mr.neon9422]

It honestly sounds pertty good

[@TES_735]

All the songs related to eggman in this game sounds this way, while songs related to sonic sounds way more magic and happy to show the difference between the characters and to make eggman look more imposing. Its a nice touch.

[@fireydoesstuff_real]

Sounds like a country anthem

[@edregisfurry]

To feed Eggman’s gigantic ego. As if he already didnt eat

[@DekerO03]

I don't think it has to do with Eggman necesarily but the song also means like you are almost at the end of the game, it gaves you the vibe that your quest is about to end.

real

[@MarvMay]

I struggled as a kid on this stage because I'd turn into super sonic which made it nearly impossible to platform safely. Then I learned the shortcuts when I got a little older. Good times, good times.

[@Darkflamewolf]

I completely agree. Super Sonic is a terror on this stage and should never be used.

[@chrissysonicutdrloz]

@@Darkflamewolf guess I'm lucky I can't ever get emeralds 😁

[@leoapp1223]

[@Meanmanmartin2007]

I never got to this level as a child but if I had I can just imagine myself staying on the plane rather than jumping off just to see what happened and consequently loosing a life.

[@chrissysonicutdrloz]

Yeah, Tails fall down, Sonic go boom😂 (I've tried it)

**** TIP FOR THE ANNOYING THING THAT DOESNT LAUNCH YOU ALL THE WAY AT 2:02 **** Go ahead of the launcher, spin dash and then jump before the gap obviously. Hope this helps someone:)

[@Darkflamewolf]

I hated doing this level so much. This and most of Metropolis Zone right before.

[@Aj07United]

​@@Darkflamewolf But this level became my personal favourite because of Super Sonic because I can skip the floating platforms😅

[@Darkflamewolf]

@@Aj07UnitedI always ended up sailing past them due to Super Sonic's insane speed. lol

[@SplotchTheCatThing]

It seems Egg Fleet from Sonic Heroes was heavily based on this stage. The main difference in Egg Fleet is that you go on a lot more ships.

[@Vinsesh_]

This stage looked unfinished to me when I saw brief glimpses of it. Didn’t know it was an actual stage.

[@AndyHappyGuy]

It does look unfinished towards the end, the conveyor belts and what seems to be a zipline don't work at all. There are portions if scaffolding that the developers seemingly don't want you to see. The boss has no sound effects at all! Most of these were fixed in the 2013 remake, but it was probably still unfinished in the original. Maybe that's why they decided to make Flying Battery in S3, maybe they wanted a second shot at making an airship themed level.

[@lls6001]

1:49 just trying to get through this now- the hatch was bloody open and I fell through anyway! Cheating game.

[@epiceevee4123]

"how can sonic breathe in space?" Well I don't know, he's a 3'3 hedgehog who can go faster than a car and destroy an entire army of robots!

[@Darkflamewolf]

Game physics! :3

[@chrissysonicutdrloz]

@Amazing Spiderman Fan 2002 same logic that makes Sonic take damage from lava, yet allows the seals and penguins to run across it unscathed.

[@cupio-stardust]

He’s not human so I can believe that he can breathe in space.

[@MisterBlueSkyProductions]

2:01 I hate this part so much, I keep getting game overs because the thing will not launch me all the way to the other end.

[@Darkflamewolf]

Yeah, I think that's a bug.

[@MisterBlueSkyProductions]

Darkflamewolf Wish they could fix it... too bad this was back in 1992 when updates weren't a thing. ;^;

[@MisterBlueSkyProductions]

***** Hah, yeah. I mean, I have the Sonic Classic Collection game for my 3DS, so all I have to do is load my progress (which JESUS CHRIST WHY DIDN'T THIS EXIST IN THE GAME BACK THEN?) so it's not too bad for me right now. I'm just stuck on that level... and I probably will be for the rest of time.

Dude I always got stuck at that part. Kept walking as the thing slid me across each time

My fav part in wing fortress is when Sonic is hanging onto the spaceship’s end

Sonic 2 : wing fortress Sonic 4 : sky fortress

[@SebinzoTheMessup]

sonic 3: flying battery

[@RWRogers]

I finally made it here!!! After ONLY 20+ years!!! LMAO! Thanks for the help.

[@LyrikalMaestro]

Little tip for all if you hit that 1st cannoneer and do a hard jump press the propeller will shoot you straight up to skip that bugged platform spot in the beginning and if you do it to the T you will save about 20-30seconds at best. Also at the tail of the ship if you hit the speed boost and are going fast enough you can projectile right to the boss, completely skipping the cascading floors part too but it requires pixel perfect timing to one of the 3 floating rings to land on instantly hitting jump on impact then hard holding right iirc.

[@cinimodder4632]

1:48 when i was little, i HAD to use debug mode to get past that. And yes i memorised the codes back then.

[@secondghost]

Oh wow I never knew you could do that in Sonic 2, I had the code for Sonic 1 when I was a kid. I had to beat this game legit back in the day and it took me over a year to finally get past this stage and Death Egg Zone. That memory might as well be carved into stone, I'll never forget it :D

[@powerstation227]

6:09 your good dude

[@tattoosbymarshalldale7126]

Its amazing how far technology has come. Because in the 90's none of your friends would've believed you beat this game 😂

[@chrissysonicutdrloz]

Even if I ever get good enough to do a no-hit run on any Sonic game at all, with my playing style, I could never get a no-hit on Sonic 2 because of the Wing Fortress boss. Those little spiked platforms, grrr!

[@theslimegamer5451]

Bro that isn’t even the worst part, it’s the act before wing fortress and before the sky chase, (if you don’t know what I’m talking about it’s the freaking metropolis zone it has 3 freaking acts

[@DiamondWolfX]

There /is/ actually 2 acts. Sky Chase is Act 1, and Wing Fortress is Act 2. Also, I remember realizing that you /can't/ fly under there, but also discovering a Tails-only shortcut that allowed me to circumvent that.

[@Darkflamewolf]

+TheTrueDiamond33 A video showing Tails circumventing that might be cool.

[@CheddarVG]

Apparently you can go under, and through a fan near the beginning to take a shortcut, no extra platforming needed. I did not know this when I was little.

[@brianlucas7762]

Now we're moving to the Pingas Death Star?

you dont have to jump as soon as the first platform opens, you can beat out the platforms much quicker by skipping platforms in between jumps.

Are we just going to ignore the fact that Right before Robotnik escaped Sonic clung on to his jet and was able to hold on the entire way there, not even slipping, even when it escaped earths gravitational field and made it into space, and the fact that this is a weaker and less experienced sonic makes it all the more impressive.
